The Emirates Policy Centre and the Geneva Centre for Security Policy have signed a memorandum of understanding to forge a partnership in researching regional and international security and political areas.

The new partnership will see the two think-tanks host conferences and workshops, conduct training for researchers and establish a programme for visiting fellowships.

The agreement is part of a strategy to open up to, and diversify partnerships with global think tanks, noted President of the Emirates Policy Centre Dr. Ebtesam Al Ketbi.
